Faye Schuett should be about three people, given her many roles on campus. The professor of English with a Ph.D. from the University of Tulsa established Pageturners, the Schoolcraft book club, partly to encourage students to read more. Reading a different book each month, the club then meets and conducts student-lead discussions.

Schuett directs Schoolcraft Scholars, the honors program. In addition to organizing lectures, trips and other activities, she guides the students as they make 100 hours of community service part of their Scholars’ experience, and often, their culminating activity. Schuett also coordinates the annual trip to Stratford to see a Shakespeare play, and conducts coffee and conversation sessions for the Continuing Education and Professional Development Department on the scheduled play.

She is involved in the International Institute, and is a member of up to 15 standing college committees at any one time. Schuett has taught almost every English class in the catalog and works with a broad mix of students. She tells her students that language gives them power, and insists that they learn to ask questions, find answers and take charge of their education. A successful teacher, says Schuett, is one who remembers how it feels to learn, and delights in that feeling.
